This pretty little 9" shell form dish came from Salvation Army. It's a beautiful subtle pink color which fades to a pearl white around the scalloped edges. There are no marks on it but I'm thinking 40's or 50's. There is a slight chance it could be older but I'm not sure. It's supported by four small shell feet on the bottom. Great to finally find a nice piece of glass.

Really pretty, fantastic find...you've got some great thrifts around you!!! I hope for your sake those four feet mean something special. Looks old to me :)
Great Find -- Great thrift stores there!!
Cambridge glass co, tuscan crown....I believe
40's sounds about right but not 100% sure on date.
Thanks everyone :)...... Cambridge glass is a nice surprise yesterdaysglass...Thanks so much for the info. Living in Ohio I know them well :)
'Crown Tuscan' was the Cambridge Glass name for their opaque pink glass and was made between 1932 and 1954. Other makes have also adopted the name and use it for their opaque pink glass. When the Sea Shell line was introduced in 1935 the opaque pink was called 'Coral' for that line, but this was the same as 'Crown Tuscan'. Seems the color name 'Coral' was an appropriate marketing strategy for the Sea Shell line of goods.
Great info TallCakes :)..... thanks again !
TC has it goin' on with the glassware, right Mike? Very cool!
